LENNIE LAWRENCE said his Bluebirds deserved to leave Turf Moor with a share of the spoils.

"Over 90 minutes I thought we deserved a point. You have to give my players credit for the spirit they showed. They ground out a result," said the City manager.

"We started both halves poorly. We let Burnley get on top of us in the first-half but we dominated the last 25 minutes.

"At half-time I told the players the first 15 minutes of the second-half will decide the match and I thought it had when they scored.

"Burnley were value for their 1-0 lead but they didn't deserve anything more than that.

You do fear the worst when you're not playing well and the other side scores the first goal.

"We needed to respond immediately and we did that. We had a lot of pressure and I thought we had the better of it after we scored. We didn't pass the ball as well as we can but it was a spirited performance from us.

"I thought we defended pretty well throughout the game but we didn't defend well for their goal. Glen Little got to the by-line and if he's allowed to do that you are going to have problems."
